Silencers Approved for Hunting Use in Florida
November 21st, 2014FirstSpear Friday Focus – SSV Pistol Holster
November 21st, 2014That’s right, FirstSpear is releasing a holster. They’ve been working on the idea for awhile now, refining the concept until they’d come to this design. I’ve seen various versions as it came along as well as this model at Modern Day Marine where the Speed, Surprise & Violence of Action Holster lay, taunting passersby, as an open secret.
FS has really put a lot into this, analyzing what works, and what doesn’t, in order to do something new. While some might think that a Kydex holster isn’t that exciting, this is just the beginning. You’re going to see some additional capability introduced that will complement this holster. It’s a very good design and I’m excited to see what they are doing.
Rather than just another molded pistol holster, FirstSpear wanted to give Armed Professionals a complimentary capability to their sidearm. Utilizing the latest in signature suppressive materials and construction techniques, the SSV Holster takes into account the full range of modern pistol craft manipulation. This holster will live up to the CQB axiom of: Speed, Surprise & Violence of Action!
The SSV incorporates multiple User requested features:
-Modular security retention that can be changed to accommodate your preferred method of carry
-Adjustable tension to give you the precise snatch stroke that you require
-Tension can be set with any modern pistol cartridge case by turning the external screw located over the trigger guard area of the holster
-Exterior face constructed to mask visual and Near Infrared (NIR) signature; aiding in overall silhouette suppression as seen by your opponent
The SSV was developed and engineered with the finest materials possible, exceeding all known Military Specifications. In addition to an Industry leading fit and finish, the holster utilizes subdued, corrosion resistant hardware for saltwater resistance standard in this capability’s composition.
Like all other FirstSpear Products the SSV holster will integrate into an overall system approach that will lighten your load, reduce your signature and keep you streamlined for the fight. This holster will adapt into future FirstSpear equipment platforms that will aid in better concealment and transportation of your sidearm. Currently, the SSV Holster integrates perfectly with their Line 1 Belt and AGB.
As with all FirstSpear products this holster will be continually innovated and improved, but the reliability, craftsmanship and confidence that it inspires will always be standard. The SSV Holster is 100% American Made out of US Materials.
Currently available and ready for shipping within 5-10 business days are the following SSV Holster and Color Combination’s; more are being added all the time, so please be sure to check their website or call for the latest additions.

ZeroBravo – Reversible Hand Stop
November 20th, 2014
ZeroBravo’s Reversible Hand Stop is a KeyMod-compatible hand stop which is designed for use with multiple mounting locations depending on the shooter’s need. Machined from 6061 aircraft-grade aluminum with Mil-Spec Type III anodizing, the RHS features a low-profile size and shape, and weighs in at only .7 ounces. 3-way texturing helps the shooter to keep positive retention on the RHS during use.
As previously mentioned, the RHS is fully reversible and can be utilized in a variety of ways, depending on the shooter’s requirements. Some examples include:
As a hand stop, to prevent the shooter from moving their hand beyond their rail.
On the bottom rail, to properly position the hand and assist with recoil and control, akin to a traditional vertical grip.
On the side rail, to act as a reference so the shooter can maintain proper position every time they draw their weapon.
The RHS is being offered exclusively through RSR Group. Dealers can order the RHS here.

G-Code / Haley Strategic – INCOG Eclipse
November 20th, 2014
The INCOG Eclipse is a minimalist holster jointly developed by Haley Strategic and G-Code, and is the newest addition to the INCOG line.
The Eclipse is a minimum bulk, multi-positional concealment holster with a streamlined design. It features G-Code’s Tactical FUZZ outer laminate, providing a softer surface which reduces noise during movement while reducing the holster’s IR signature.
The Eclipse utilizes a patent-pending single-clip belt interface called the Super MoJo. The Super MoJo is designed to both place the clip in the correct orientation, and to provide multiple angle adjustments. The Super MoJo allows the Eclipse to mount at its natural center of gravity, while forcing the holster closer to the body, improving the concealability of the holster without increasing bulk. This also has the effect of supporting a higher positional carry without compromising the security of the holster during use.
The INCOG Eclipse is available for most common pistol models, and for left or right-hand carry. Available in Black, Gray, OD Green, and Tan. The finishes available for the Super MoJo include Brushed Aluminum, Black, Gold, and Burnt Orange.
